she let me live

she lives a life of pain and regret
a life of worry
never ever taking a chance
just sitting back and letting the chances take her

never fully putting her heart into anything
not the things she loves.. not the things other's love
not even her children


she'll never find love.
no.. never in the wrong places she keeps her eyes on
she searches from place to place.. in hopes of finding someone to catch her
yet she falls.. farther and farther everytime ,she falls


i can't exactly say i've ever looked up to her (or that i ever will)
although i wish i could
i wish she could be my hero



i wish i could help her somehow. find a way to save her




she's strong
but oh so weak
she never knows when to show her backbone and when to just leave at as is






this woman.
.. i love her
she gave birth to me
she let me live
